SwimOdin Posted July 5 Share Posted July 5 Are fireworks used locally legal in your area? Does it sound like the eastern front of the Ukrainian/Russian border right outside your door too? Why the fuck do I live in the south? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_annoying_one Posted July 5 Share Posted July 5 I’ve been hearing sporadic fireworks a few streets over, but nothing like it used to be in my former neighborhood. I, on the other hand, am staying in tonight and catching up on a few episodes of the Ray Donovan box set I bought about a year ago and somehow forgot about until recently. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwimOdin Posted July 5 Author Share Posted July 5 That sounds better than me. I’m high, on my couch, afraid of fireworks like dogs are. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwimOdin Posted July 5 Author Share Posted July 5 Ok that last explosion sounding like putting a satellite into orbit. We don’t play in Georgia. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SwimOdin Posted July 5 Author Share Posted July 5 Now the children are screaming and it sounds not great, and those are the neighborhood kids we like so explosion night sucks it’s cancelled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_annoying_one Posted July 5 Share Posted July 5 Okay, I just took my dog out and can now confirm that it sounds like a small-scale war out there. Yep, my butt’s staying firmly planted in my bedroom the rest of the night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Insipid Posted July 5 Share Posted July 5 I viewed the fireworks from my seventh story balcony. Yay for living in a high rise, I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of stuff going off around here and the occasional sounds of EMS and fire sirens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scoobdog Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 They’re legal in my city…. And no one uses the legal safe and sane fireworks. They just wheel out the cardboard barrels of death, scaring the shit out of every animal in a mile radius. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My city used to make people buy permits to shoot them off, they never enforced it. This year they didn't even pretend, they dropped the permits and just said "whatever" 3... That is how many of those paper lanterns landed in my yard from wherever they drifted from. All were on fire Don't even get me started on the jack offs that shot off more rounds than Ukraine and Russia managed in the last two years combined, and then left all their trash in the fucking street right in front of their houses The older I get, the more kickin wing's snakes and sparklers stand sounds appealing 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s the dude in the $1mil house that’s holding a pool party in back. He probably spent more on his illegal fireworks than he would have going to the high school band’s fireworks stand on the corner.

katt_goddess Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 Tardy to the party but they aren't legal where I live but they are legal about 6 miles away in another town and they are sold just outside of my place which means there are no borders on the 4th. And a few days before. And a few days after. That said, I fell asleep rather early and was absolutely exhausted so I slept through all the night time shenanigans.

There's always that person before and after the 4th... I don't know who it is, but they insist on shooting off a single black cat every few mins... all day 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
